Cheap Flights to Boltenhagen from HK$1,852

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be overwhelming. But there's no need to panic. Follow these tips and tricks for a stress-free start to your time in Boltenhagen. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a great experience if you bring the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Opt for flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to take a pullover in case you get cold in the cabin.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The secret is to be prepared before you get to security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Boltenhagen in a flash. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a terrific start:

• Be sure to have your ID and boarding pass within easy reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items like your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, must also be separately scanned.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
